    <h3> Statement </h3>
    <p>
        $1.2.14.$ According to the graph of acceleration versus time, set the speed at times $4$ and $15$ s, if at time $1$ s the speed is $3$ $\frac{m}{s}$.

For problem

    <h3>Solution</h3>
    <p>
        Acceleration depends on time, as:

Missing or unrecognized delimiter for \left\left{\begin{matrix} a(t) = 0\;m/s^2,\; 0\text{ s} \leq t \leq 2\text{ s}\ a(t) = 20t,\; 2\text{ s} \leq t \leq 5\text{ s}\ a(t) = 60\;m/s^2,\; 5\text{ s} \leq t \leq 9\text{ s}\ a(t) = 60-20(t-9),\; 9\text{ s} \leq t \leq 12\text{ s}\ a(t) = 0, t> 12\text{ s} \end{matrix}\right.

Given that the area under the graph of acceleration vs. time is velocity vs. time. Then the velocity depends on time as:

Missing or unrecognized delimiter for \left\left{\begin{matrix} v(t) = 3\;m/s,\; 0\text{ s} \leq t \leq 2\text{ s}\ v(t) = 3+20t^2/2,\; 2\text{ s} \leq t \leq 5\text{ s}\ v(t) = 93+60(t-5),\; 5\text{ s} \leq t \leq 9\text{ s}\ v(t) = 333 - 20 (t - 9)^2/2 + 60 (t - 9),\; 9\text{ s} \leq t \leq 12\text{ s}\ v(t) = 423\;m/s, t> 12\text{ s} \end{matrix}\right.

The graph of this dependence is presented below:

Dependence of velocity on time

It follows that at and the velocity is and , respectively.
